I am curious on why he was searched at all.
Probably the screenshot.
Yeah, but how did they find out about the screenshot.
shown off the source code he stole from a former employer during a Microsoft Teams call with that same company.
Edit: He showed his previous employer their source code while working at Nvidia. The former employer took screenshots, and sued.
Oh ok, understood now.
He's an idiot. He was screen sharing during a joint project with his former employer (Valeo) and had the stolen code behind the powerpoint, that was then minimized or closed, it even was in a dir called 'valeoCode' or something like that
They probably contacted the police, since there was clear evidence he had committed a crime.
